After an exhausting session with Victoria's Secret Police, X98
confessed the following: THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING OF SORROWS! Ha! Boston Red Sox fans know sorrow, AKA The Curse of the Bambino. MLB fans know sorrow, and his name is Bud Selig. Soon Bush will have murdered more people than any man known to man. Pffftttt....your math skills and googling skills need a tune up. These numbers come from R.J. Rummel, a political scientist at the University of Hawaii who studies mass killing. http://www.hawaii.edu/powerkills/PERSONAL.HTM Rummel's genocide figures are more inclusive than some--in fact, he prefers the term "democide," which he defines as "the murder of any person or people by a government, including genocide, politicide, and mass murder." Genocide is killing due to ethnicity, religion, or other "indelible group membership," whereas politicide is murder for political reasons. Democide excludes deaths due to war (36.5 million between 1900 and 1987) and reckless but not purposely murderous government policies--for example, the loss of over 20 million Chinese during the famine of 1959-'62, which was caused by the failure of the Great Leap Forward. Defining terms this way puts the Nazi slaughter in perspective. The following are Rummel's 12 most murderous regimes (from his article in the Encyclopedia of Genocide, 1999): (1) USSR, 62 million deaths, 1917-'87; (2) People's Republic of China, 35 million, 1949-'87; (3) Germany, 21 million, 1933-'45; (4) nationalist China, 10 million, 1928-'49; (5) Japan, 6 million, 1936-'45; (6) prerevolutionary Chinese communists ("Mao Soviets"), 3.5 million, 1923-'49; (7) Cambodia, 2 million, 1975-'79; (8) Turkey (Armenian genocide), 1.9 million, 1909-'18; (9) Vietnam, 1.7 million, 1945-'87; (10) Poland, 1.6 million, 1945-'48; (11) Pakistan, 1.5 million, 1958-'87; (12) Yugoslavia, 1.1 million, 1944-'87. Three additional "suspected megamurderers," as Rummel puts it, are North Korea, 1.7 million deaths, 1948-'87; Mexico, 1.4 million, 1900-'20; and czarist Russia, 1.1 million, 1900-'17. Rummel goes on to identify the top nine killers: (1) Joseph Stalin, 43 million dead, 1929-'53; (2) Mao Tse-tung, 38 million, 1923-'76; (3) Adolf Hitler, 21 million, 1933-'45; (4) Chiang Kai-shek, 10 million, 1921-'48; (5) Vladimir Lenin, 4 million, 1917-'24; (6) Tojo Hideki (Japan), 4 million, 1941-'45; (7) Pol Pot, 2.4 million, 1968-'87; (8) Yahya Khan (Pakistan), 1.5 million, 1971; (9) Josip Broz, better known as Marshal Tito (Yugoslavia), 1.2 million, 1941-'80. He is a beast who... Nah...he's a Texan, sorta. God says, will one day, 42 months after he declares marshal law, come to his end and no one will help him! Ummm, who is declaring marshal [sic] law? God? So god is talking these days huh? According to Pat Robertson, god told him GWB is going to be re-elected in a landslide in Nov. Nemo Me Impune Lacessit No one provokes me with impunity...you sure about that? Juvat |
